Flotihyb DTC-X Collectors – Advancing Greater Selectivity

Flotihybs are a family of xanthate dithiocarbamate hybrids. Each product in the family has a unique underlying pKa for the dithiocarbamate group, making them selective to specific mineral isoelectric points at an optimal pH.

  • Available in various collector strengths.
  • Can be supplied as sodium, potassium, tertiary amine and other salts.
  • Can be either depressants or collectors, depending on the pendant groups.
Flotihybs are covered under US Patent 9,580,385 and other pending applications both US and internationally.

Flotixan Xanthates – Ease of use, liquid pumpable and reduced frother demand

Flotixans are a family of xanthates based on polyalkoxylated monohydric alcohols that are then reacted with carbon disulfide to make the xanthates.

  • Flotixans are available in various chain lengths of the hydrophobe by varying the value of n.
  • Flotixans can be supplied as sodium, potassium, tertiary amine and other salts.
  • Flotixans based on propylene oxide have surfactancy properties beyond the typical xanthates based on alkyl alcohols, thus reducing your frother needs greatly.
  • Flotixans are supplied as liquids with 100% activity that can be pumped. No need for day tanks or handling soilds with the potential to dust and expose workers.
  • Can be used at the natural pH of most flotation systems with no need for additional caustic.
Flotixans are covered under US Patent 9,481,634 and other pending applications both US and internationally.
